Elixir Strings, Electric Guitar Strings, Nickel Plated Steel with OPTIWEB Technology, Longest-Lasting Crisp Tone with Comfortable Feel, 6 String Set, Light/Heavy 10-52

These are the best quality strings I’ve ever used. Other brands’ strings usually start to corrode after 2 weeks of use. These strings don’t even show wear until a couple of months of use. They have a great sound and they feel great.

My son has sweaty hands and plays daily so strings either rust or snap within a few months. These have lasted an entire year. No rust, no snapped strings.

Extremely smooth feel yet no plastic feel, so greatly reduces finger squeak and reduces callusing if you play a lot of rhythm. The sound on the trebles is also a touch fatter than the other biggest selling brands. That makes a big difference to me when you have a thin 9 and 11 on top. With some brands, to my ear you just have nothing on those top 2 I just wish the 4th string were a 30 instead of 32. Usually a 10-52 set is 30-42-52. These are 32-42-52. That one difference is surprisingly big. It feels like a beefier set with that D being .002 bigger. I don't think that extra tension is needed because the D is never really a buzzy string, but rather the A and E are.

I put these on 2 of my guitars, my Godin Icon Type 2, which is a Les Paul style guitar, and my Epiphone ES-335 Pro. They’re great strings. Very comfortable to play and they have great tone. Excellent strings for the money.

I originally bought these strings as a direct replacement for my Jackson Dinky js22 DKA, but I was unaware that Jackson string gauge is 0.009-0.042. Extremely light string gauge compared to the 0.010-0.052 I bought. The strings at first were very hard to press on because my fingers aren’t use to such thick strings. Although lowering the tuning to from normal to a a 1/2 tune will help tremendously. The heavy light strings are really meant more for lower tune, and they feel incredible. I’d highly recommend these for anyone who often plays 1/2 or drop D tune. If not I’d recommend getting 0.009-0.042 a lighter gauge if you own a Jackson, and looking for a direct replacement.

The Elixir nanowed guitar strings are amazing they sound beyond amazing the quality is beyond great...Highly recommend this product.

Great strings that sound nice and crisp and last a long time. They feel slick and stay in tune. I use these thick stings gauges as I tune to D standard tuning on all my guitars. I uses these on my PRS custom 24 10 tops and all my Gibson Custom Les Pauls. I even use them in my custom fender strat. Would definitely recommend trying these out.

Longtime Elixir nanoweb user - but happy with these too. Basic Elixir feel and tone, but a little different than nanoweb. Still, in the same family of feel and tone. SUMMARY: If you like nanoweb, you'll like these. If you are the trad-string type, but tried them and "almost" liked nanowebs, then give Optiweb a try. A good compromise between the "no coating" feel and the longevity benefits of a coated string...but tilted a bit to the non-coated side of the boat as far as feel.

Great tone and playability. Longer lasting than regular strings. Check for optimal pricing. It shouldn’t cost over 1k-1.1k per set. Else, it’s a rip off

Ich finde die Saiten klasse. Sie lassen sich ausgezeichnet spielen und haben einen sehr sehr guten klang. Leider etwas teurer als Ernie ball zb aber trotzdem lohnenswert.

レスポールjrで使用。 普段アコギメインなので、週に1.２回触る程度。 弾き終わりのメンテナンスさえ怠ることなく、余程の神経質でなければ、私の弾く頻度で半年程度は気にならず使える印象です。 コーティング弦だからといって、昔のようにこもったり、抜けの悪い音だなっていう印象は一切なく、耐久性と音質を天秤にかけてた頃が懐かしく思えます。 近頃は技術の進歩もあり、個人的には、長い目で見て、コーティング弦の方がコスパが良いように思います。

Buon venditore consiglio

Really strong and reliable strings.
